📋 About This Mod

Issue

You might find that sometimes when reading a book, the book you clicked is not the one displayed on the reading interface/mode. When you click back the book you were supposed to read is marked as read but not actually read and it got sorted. This mod fixes that.

You don't need the original mod as it was just a configuration file, this is the same configuration file with the changes added. You can't patch text files the same way as ESP files. The changes are shown in the diff picture.
